Chapter 244: – The Shore Was Swept with Many Fish

~8 min read 1,484 words

Nan Qinghuan: "……"

Seeing her silent, Ying also realized he was overthinking; he seemed to comfort himself, "It's okay, I'll work harder tonight."

"Ying…"

"Does it still hurt?"

I must say, this man truly gives her meticulous care; she feels that not being pregnant really lets him down.

She also silently prays in her heart to become pregnant soon, to make this wild man happy.

Seeing his worried expression, she quickly shakes her head, "Much better."

"Come, climb onto my back."

"Onto my back?"

Ying lets her lie on his back, then he darts down the mountain like a gust of wind; Nan Qinghuan clings to his neck, feeling as if she were riding in a carriage.

"Ying, slower, slower…"

She thought she was going to fall, but Ying steadily brings her to the beach, where the afterglow of sunset blends sea and sky into one.

It feels extremely pleasant.

Carrying Nan Qinghuan while looking at the vast ocean, his mood is unusually excited; even without news of a child, he does not lose heart.

Because he will keep striving, constantly pulling her along!

"Qinghuan, our Tribe will soon have Iron Tools."

Nan Qinghuan asks him to set her down, then she takes off her Shoes, "Ying, hold it."

"Qinghuan, what are you doing?"

"Wade in the waves."

Nan Qinghuan knows he lacks a romantic cell, so she quickly steps her feet onto the soft sand; in the distance, towering mountains stretch beyond sight, just as Ying had brought her down.

I must say, his jumping ability is astonishing.

No wonder he can move freely among these towering peaks.

She gazes at him deeply, then places her foot on his foot, making him lean slightly, and kisses his cheek, "Ying, are you happy?"

Ying is stunned by the kiss; his eyes turn blood‑red with a flash of lust, as if he wants to… "Qinghuan, I…"

"This place doesn't work; it's my first time at this beach. Ying, tell me what Tribes are here and what fun things there are."

"Tribe?"

Seeing her interest, Ying walks slowly with her along the beach; Nan Qinghuan's little feet press into the sand, leaving a trail of cute footprints.

Ying follows behind her, matching her steps, while introducing the local situation and keeping pace with her little feet.

They walk, one step, one footprint at a time.

"So many Tribes—are you saying there are even more powerful Tribes across the sea?"

She has suspected that a higher civilization exists here; otherwise, why would Ying and Youchao Xuan sometimes speak so cultured?

Upon hearing her mention it, Ying's steps also halt, his gaze drifting toward the opposite shore, "Indeed, over there are the noble Ape Tribe, and also…"

"Ape Tribe?"

Nan Qinghuan sees him looking at her, realizing she must explain the Ape Tribe matter, "Ying, I'm not someone who came out of the Ape Tribe; I say I come from the future—do you believe me?"

"You say you're not an Ape Tribe person?"

Nan Qinghuan knows she's been misunderstood for a long time; now that she's so close to Ying, she should tell him, even if he can't accept or understand.

But she doesn't want to lie to him.

"That's right, I'm not any Ape Tribe; actually I was lost in the mist and entered your area. When I arrived, I heard that the mountain peaks here held remnants of ancient creatures, so I set out alone with equipment."

Seeing Ying silent and listening, she sighs in relief and continues, "Unfortunately I got lost. Before this, I had told my senior brother about this place; he and my teacher were very interested in it. They told me not to wander off and wait for them, but I got lost here, at the forest where we first met."

She also doesn't know if Ying can understand what she's saying, but it's the truth; actually she hasn't mentioned this to him for so long because she didn't know how to say it.

How to say she got lost and came here.

She remembers it was very clear then; the compass failed, a white light struck her, and she ran for her life, ending up here.

She hopes her senior brother and teacher won't come looking for her; once you're here, you can't leave.

Hearing this, Ying is first stunned, then he understands, "We're not from the same place?"

No wonder he thinks Qinghuan knows so many things he hasn't seen, and hears so many things he's never heard, and she always wanted to run.

She wanted to run… and the place she ran to is that area; he knows she came from there, and he also knows that's where he first saw her.

Nan Qinghuan didn't expect him to understand; that's really great.

I must say, now communicating with Ying is very convenient; his thoughts are avant‑garde, and although he doesn't grasp what the future is, he says he's not from this place.

He understood.

Yes, they truly aren't from the same place.

One ancient, one modern.

Their advancements differ!

Their environments differ, so do their habits; that's why after arriving here they're full of Gunpowder smell. Nan Qinghuan is stubborn, preferring soft over hard, while Ying is a wild man, with a domineering, unreasonable temper, making their adjustment very hard.

But fortunately everything is now in the past, and they've adjusted well.

"That's right, you can understand it that way, so I…"

"Qinghuan, don't leave me; I don't care where you came from. Since I saw you, you've been my woman, for a lifetime, I won't let you go."

Ying suddenly feels a bit scared, fearing that Nan Qinghuan might one day just disappear; he doesn't understand what senior brother and teacher are, but he knows they are people close to her.

And he's even more worried whether those people will come to take her away.

Take her away from his side.

Nan Qinghuan didn't expect him to be so afraid of her leaving; she reaches out, tightly embraces his waist, rests her head on his chest, and quietly listens to his strong heartbeat.

Thump thump thump… "Ying, I won't leave you, I swear."

She had already thought it through; people really do change.

Hearing her say she still isn't at ease about not leaving Ying, he loves her to his core; call him cruel or insecure, it doesn't matter, he simply cannot allow her to leave him.

But he didn't show it for fear of displeasing Qinghuan; he silently decided in his heart that any outsiders, anyone dressed oddly, must all be killed.

He was scared; he even worried that the people Nan Qinghuan mentioned would come to take her away. She said they were just lost—so would the senior brother and teacher she mentioned come looking for her? He dared not think about it, so he resolved to stop it all.

If they took Qinghuan away, he would go mad!

"Qinghuan…"

Nan Qinghuan was very happy after telling him the secret; now she truly felt relieved. She gently let go of Ying, "Ying, we…"

"What's that?"

Suddenly, Ying saw many fish being washed up, and then a voice of ChaoJi came from behind him.

"Goddess, Ying, come quickly and see, the Sea Witch has sent many fish again."

Hearing that, Ying was delighted, "Qinghuan, your arrival brought them abundant food, and more things have been sent, let's go take a look."

Nan Qinghuan didn't think the Sea Witch would give them anything; what on earth was happening? She felt something big was occurring, nature was giving a warning—could it be… "Ying, go take a look."

She hurried with Ying to the other side of the beach, and indeed the clan members were there gathering the fish that had surged up; every kind of fish, a great bounty.

"Goddess, look, the Sea Witch has sent food again."

Youchao Xuan was telling the clan members to take these things back, but Nan Qinghuan saw… the seawater was rapidly receding, then, under the sun, it stretched into a long white wall of water; countless unknown seabirds fled the sky in panic. Such an abnormality was not good.

Below ground, a intermittent trembling sensation rose.

Not good!

Realizing something was wrong, she shouted, "Stop gathering, run to the Huang Jin Chao Mountain Peak, now!"

When she said that, everyone was confused; Ying and Youchao Xuan looked at her, equally puzzled, "Goddess, what did you say?"

"What's wrong with Qinghuan?"

"Don't ask, all the clan members run to the Huang Jin Chao Top, a tsunami is coming, this place will be flooded, hurry, run!"

The clan members, not knowing what a tsunami was, stared at her with blank faces; Youchao Xuan also noticed the seawater was odd, because the receded water returned, and… rose very high.

He looked at the scene in terror, shouted, "All clan members run toward the peak, run!"
